Dismissing Charges Against Migrants
The charges against 211 migrants who stormed across a border barrier in Texas were dismissed due to a technicality in paperwork filing. Despite video evidence showing the migrants storming through razor wire and assaulting national guard troops, the case was released by El Paso district judge Ruben Morales as the paperwork needed for the transfer was not properly filed by the state.
Inflation Misinformation and Late Fee Cap
President Biden made false claims on CNN regarding inflation rates, stating it was 9% when he took office, while official records showed it was 1.4%. Additionally, a new eight dollar cap on credit card late fees is set to go into effect, although financial institutions are challenging the rule change in federal court. The reduced late fee could benefit financially strained users, but experts like Ted Rossman note that credit card companies may find ways to navigate around the cap.
